Ford Bronco review

It’s a good question to ask, as there are a multitude of trims and packages for the Bronco, a list that’s constantly in a state of change.

Currently, there are seven flavors of Bronco on offer. Some have a two-door option, some are exclusively four-door. Some get the optional manual, some get the Sasquatch pack… you get the picture.

Along with that, there is a staggering array of factory-direct extra bits to tack on to your build for that touch of personalization. Outside of the fundamental differences like the engines on offer, most of what separates stuff like the Base trim and the others are convenience packages that add things like heated seats, more parking/off-road cameras and a superior sound system to name just a few.

The Base and Big Bend Broncos start at $40,495 and $40,995 respectively, both fitted with the 300hp 2.3-liter I-4 Ecoboost and the option of the seven-speed manual over the 10-speed automatic. The Big Bend doesn’t come as a two-door, but it does feature more amenities.

Broncos Outer Banks and Badlands are more loaded up with gizmos, and include the 2.7-liter V6 as an option. They come in at around $48,000, with the $48,890 Badlands as the most versatile model of the lot as it has the widest range of customization.

Beyond these are the special edition versions like the Heritage edition, which is like an Outer Banks with a white retro-style grille and matching hard-top, plus some plaid seating for the interior.

The similarly-styled Bronco Stroppe Edition is painted in primary colors in honor of the Baja-blasting Bronco raced by Bill Stroppe in the ‘60s and ‘70s. This is essentially a mini-Raptor, as it shares the suspension components with the sport truck but has the standard 2.7-liter V6. These are priced at $51,624 for the former and $69,995 for the latter.

Lastly, there’s the $79,995 Bronco Raptor. Like its bulky F-150 sibling, the Bronco Raptor has a high performance suspension, dampers for high-speed off-roading, and a 418hp 3.0-liter Ecoboost to power proceedings.

Which one would we get? Don’t make us choose, we want them all.
